I've decrypted a game since I wanted to translate it to Italian, but the script files are all messy and with a .lua extension. Even when I open them they seem corrupted or something. Is there something I'm skipping or there's no way?
It sounds like the scripts are compiled. Try reading psy_commando's post about how to decompile them (guide written for Pokemon Mystery Dungeon):

If it's anything like Pokemon Mystery Dungeon, the actual dialog will be stored in another file, but it's probably best to see what's in the scripts before making assumptions.
[Edit]
Wait, it's published by Chunsoft. It might actually be the same format.

I'm trying right now to make it work, but I'd like to ask something else that you might know the answer to as well. VLR was basically the only game braindump didn't want to decrypt, since it froze whenever I selected it. I managed to decrypt it anyway, but not with braindump. That would be fine, but it seems that the same thing is happening now with Hans, since I can't open VLR with it, but I can open every other game.
Do you have any idea why that'd happen, or if I can fix it?

Well, you use Google Translate of course.
Scrolling through the Lua files, is there anything that looks like normal Lua script, or is the whole thing just a mess? If it's the former, it could be that the file is encoded in something like SHIFT-JIS.

Everything is a mess except for a few random readable words here and there

It's a compiled lua script, but unluac.jar doesn't do anything with it for some reason. In PMD: GTI and PSMD (both published by Spike Chunsoft), they can be decompiled and recompiled using unluac.jar and luac.exe, respectively. Maybe LVR doesn't use Lua 5.1 like Mystery Dungeon?
Sorry for taking a while to answer. http://prntscr.com/a5ja3f This is one of the files.
Open it in a hex editor instead. If the amount of bytes between each string is consistent, it won't be too difficult to reverse engineer the file type.

The games already released in English language regions. I play it.
